Hindsight
Jack Carter always wondered what he'd change if he could relive the past. Now, he has the chance to find out. Jack was in the middle of a very realistic nightmare. Unsure of how it happened, he awoke in the bed of his ex-wife. Instant feelings of confusion and guilt rushed through his mind as he battled to remember what happened. The world Jack is now trapped in is all too familiar. He had lived this life once before, but no one around him is any the wiser. As Jack begins to live out his past again, he frantically searches for clues or a reason why this is happening. As he is confronted by his guardian angel, Samuel, he learns that he has been deposited back into his own past as part of a supernatural test. The purpose of the test is not immediately given to him. Samuel, monitoring his progress along the way, warns Jack to stay diligent in following the Lord. Only with leaning on Him for understanding, while maintaining the integrity of the past, will Jack learn of his mission and avoid changing the future.

The wall began to ripple. She felt a jolt, like a low voltage electric current pass through her body then it was over. She shook her head. It was, Shaina decided, time to begin her adventure. She grabbed the handle and pulled hard on the heavy, wooden door. It opened with a groan. Outside, it was overcast. But, it didn t smell all that bad after all. At least not at first. This is how Shaina Brewer arrives at what she thinks is her destination, and is one of the stories in Traveler s HOT L.

Grand Junction
The Ute Indians were hardly out of western Colorado when their land was opened to Anglo settlers. It was on September 26, 1881, when George A. Crawford, William McGinley, R. D. Mobley, M. R. Warner, and others went to the junction of the Gunnison and Grand (later renamed the Colorado) Rivers to claim 640 acres. In the semiarid confluence of the two rivers, a city developed, fruit orchards were planted, and a college grew out of the seeds of a single-room school with a dirt floor. Several newspapers opened, providing news and information to a business community that included coal mining, railroads, dry goods, and even a toffee factory whose products have graced the tables of royalty. How Grand Junction was able to develop into a progressive community of entrepreneurs, educators, and community-minded citizens is a story best told in a small sampling of pictures. None of the founders are still here, but their legacy, stories, and pictures have survived to speak for them.
